There is on the market a pair of nylon waterproof (and windproof ) gloves that have a thumb and two fingers that you wear over your gloves in the rain, or cold, that seem like they last forever. Mine are now 20 years old and work as well now than they did when new. They sound kind of freaky, and look that way too, but they really work, good luck to you too.

waterproof gloves

My hands were starting to get chilly the closer I got to SpyderFest, then the rain started. As soon as I could I went to Walmart and bought a box of blue neoprene gloves. Slipped them on over my riding gloves and my hands at least were dry and warmer the rest of the trip. The neoprene gloves seemed more tear-resistant than the white latex ones.

These work AWESOME...best I've had..kind of hard to have 100% watrproof gloves all that stitching just calls for a leak. Went with these covers after several years of using oversized rubber goves on top of ryding gloves. Then was told about the above...winner winner...

I use a set of Ogio covers, that I think I got from Dennis Kirk.
I'll often shed my gloves, and just wear them, when the weather starts looking a bit "Extra Humid"...
But if you want to go CHEEP: a pair of Wal-Mart shopping bags will also do the trick!

Wouldn't it just be cheaper to not wear gloves? That way you wouldn't have to worry about a little rain.

If your hands get wet, when riding turn "ON" the heated hand grips. Common sense!!!

Weather at times was in the 40s and pouring rain. Heated grips only helped a little. Keeping dry was key.

Mike,
that is what I was looking for when I was on my trip to Georgia just a couple of weeks ago when I got caught in a rainstorm. What a great idea! Thanks!

I think you can find them in the plastic wrap section of the grocery dept at Walmart. If in a real emergency I bet you could go plead your case in almost any restaurant and get a pair. Thanks Mike.

Great idea!
Food service, exam gloves, dishwashing gloves: used them all. We rode all day Friday in pouring rain. We ride in lots of weather. Our gear includes the Aerostich 3 finger rain gloves, to wear over other gloves. On sale, 30! Worth every penny, and we don't leave without several sets of gloves: hot, regular, wet, cold, and covers. Ann likes her snowmobile gloves from Costco. For the rider who needs an emergency pair to get home, a set of bright yellow dishwashing gloves from any supermarket works. Plus, people see your hand signals! Great to see you, Mike.

If that was the case. He should have stated it at the beginning. IF he really didn't want anyone else's opinion, he could have just left us alone. If you want good gear, it will cost you. If you don't want to spend the money, or don't have the money, ha ha, then you make do.

Those too are my gloves. I didn't post them as there are cheaper one in the link I posted. I didn't mean to hurt Mike's sensitivities, it's hard to figure out what he wants when he posts things.
